Channel discovery

Add a channel

Paste a YouTube channel URL or handle. We’ll confirm the channel details, check whether it is already tracked, and prepare a structured addition request.

1Look up the channel through YouTube and review the resolved details.
2Suggest its genre, language, and format for manual review.
3We check the channel against our tracking criteria and queue it for manual review.

Submissions are checked automatically against our tracking criteria, then reviewed manually before any channel is added. The lookup is read-only until you submit a request.

Look up a YouTube channel

Use a /channel/ URL, an /@handle URL, a channel ID, or a bare handle. Video links are not supported.

One lookup uses YouTube’s official channel API.
